[quote=Ashilla post_id=1992097 time=1597929112 user_id=188001]OMG, I got a shock when I saw the number of applicants at BTPS. I thought we would be safe within 1km. Now I am panicking. Does it mean it will most likely ballot for all? What's happening?

Did u call the school? Looking at the numbers I think it’s probable to ballot within 2km

For 2C supplementary, does MOE release any details about the stats?[/quote]Thanks

Thanks for that! Hopefully it's the case. Keeping the fingers crossed. The results this year are all so bizzare!

You should be smiling now. Balloting for BTPS is above 2km. 👍🏻

Some schools shoot past the availability on the last day and mainly “benefited” the SC. Hopefully, not many PRs are caught in the bind.

On the contrary, the numbers are quite in line with expectations.


If you look at the numbers applying for Phase 2CS and the number of people who will be left without a school after failing the ballot (before MOE post them), it’s well within the norms. The number of places left is also more than sufficient to cater to them.

What is unique about this year is probably the number of people all wanting to go for the same schools as well as the number of people who plays it safe by going for < 1km schools.

Fun fact:

1. There were still withdrawals from earlier phases in 2Cs.
2. Total Applicants in 2Cs were more than Excess in 2C + withdrawals during 2Cs.

Based on ur point about people going for <1km schools I thought it is only right or the way to go considering it will attain them priority. Plus its with MOE hopes that for the child well being they dont have to wake up too early to travel to school. So its not exactly about playing safe but the cluster of up and rising new neighbourhood and/or BTO. Feel the pinch here for Sengkang/Punggol area.
